Brand Reputation Management

Successful brand reputation management begins with monitoring for mentions of your brand in online social media communities such as Twitter and Facebook.

Why Brand Reputation Management Is So Important

When deciding on which restaurant to dine at or where to go for a local product or service, most people use the Internet. They search the options that are available and read what others are saying. And, ultimately, the information or lack of information they find will determine their choice.

Information available on the Internet about a company, be it good, bad, or non-existent, becomes part of what’s known as their Online Reputation.

We have the right tools to manage your customer’s reputation and improve it for only dollars a day. It’s your way of adding a new revenue stream while building additional loyalty between you and your customer.

The score is a value from 0 to 100 that represents the presence of accurate and complete listings data as well as user generated content across internet yellow pages, local search, social networking, regional and vertical sites. The score is a summary result based on multiple data points. The relative rank and score of sites in the report help us to determine where the merchant will receive the most benefit from syndication.

Competitive analysis – see how you rank against known competitors and businesses with high online visibility

Syndication of your business profile across internet yellow pages, local search, social networking, regional and category specific sites

What does syndication mean? Syndication is the process of claiming merchant listings and creating accounts across multiple online destinations, for the purpose of increasing the merchant’s online presence and pushing out a consistent message about the business to all the places where customers are looking.

How does syndication work? We ask subscribers to fill out a detailed business profile including basic contact information, web address, list of products and services, business description, and other elements. Using the information in this profile, in the Full Service model we visit local search sites with business directories and create, enhance, or fix listings for the business.

What is the benefit of syndication? Our detailed analysis of the subscriber’s online presence helps us target those sites that offer the greatest opportunity to boost the subscriber’s visibility. Over time, this syndication effort is rewarded by a steady increase in the merchant’s score, which drives traffic to the merchant’s website and storefront.

What are your key differentiators between MyRepManager and its competitors’ products? Detailed, accurate reporting over a wider range of sites and site categories. We will literally be monitoring hundreds of sites covering your specific categories, compared to our competitors who monitor only the dozen or so largest.

Our proprietary scoring system helps you measure your reputation against competitors and track improvement over time.

Syndication actively pushes your message out to the sites that matter.
